For those using Outlook Express, there is a setting in your Address Book
entries that can override your general Outlook Express options. Even if your
general option is set to HTML output, you can check the little checkbox on
the Name tab of your address book entry for
LegacyUserGroup@Legacyfamilytree.com to send in plain text only.
Not sure if this works for replies to incoming HTML e-mails, but it
definitely works for new e-mails.
Sherry, thanks for the tip on Control+mouse wheel for reading fine print.
Works well in OE.

When replying, the default setting in Outlook Express is to use the
format of the original message and it is easy to forget to set the format
back to plain text. Having said that receiving html messages doesn't
bother me at all.

In many cases, people using Windows based software usually default to
HTML.
In some cases, people probably don't realize they are sending messages in
HTML or don't know how to change it. Many people that are not what I
would
call "computer savvy" just may not know there is a difference and may not
know what someone is referring to when discussing HTML. I try to
remember
to watch and change it, but frankly, I don't mind if my messages come to
me
in HTML or plain text. Either one if fine with me.
